Supt's Scoop Newsletter

Panther Community,

As we begin this last month of the 2024-25 school year, I want to express my sincere gratitude for your continued partnership and support of our students and schools. The Siloam Springs community is a vital part of our district's success, and your involvement makes a real difference in the lives of our students.

I am incredibly proud to be the superintendent of the Siloam Springs School District. I always look forward to May as it is always an exciting and rewarding month! Graduations, end of semester parties, wrapping up a great school year and preparing for 2025-26. Our staff and students have accomplished so many things, both in the classroom and out this year. It is really mind blowing what wonderful people we have in our district. It is truly a blessing for me to be a Panther!

I personally want to extend a heartfelt "congratulations" to our 2025 Senior graduating class. What a journey it’s been. You’ve worked hard, grown through challenges, and built memories that will last a lifetime. As you step into what’s next, know that we’re proud of you—not just for what you’ve accomplished, but for who you’ve become. I know you each of you will do great things!

Once a Panther, always a Panther.

Go Panthers!
